The
2013 Suwa Award was presented to the J-PARC Neutrino Beam Group last week in Japan, to celebrate the achievement of the world’s highest-intensity neutrino beam, used in the T2K experiment.
A pioneer and founder of TRIUMF and an inspiration in physics and life to many, Erich W. Vogt passed away peacefully this morning at Vancouver General Hospital.
A new electron neutrino appearance result from the T2K collaboration was published this week, bringing researchers one step closer to answering one of the greatest puzzles of particle physics: why is there more matter than antimatter in our universe?
During this annual shutdown period, the Ultra-Cold Neutron (UCN) project kicks off construction of their state-of-the-art experimental area, "excavating" the shielding blocks in the southwestern Meson Hall for the first time since 1978.
The Honourable Amrik Virk, Minister
of Advanced Education, and the Honourable Andrew Wilkinson, Minister of
Technology, Innovation, and Citizens’ Services, visited TRIUMF last week and learned about
the progress underway at ARIEL.
TRIUMF welcomes the Federal Government's commitment to science and technology in Budget 2014. We look forward to working together on an enhanced program of operating
support as well as new opportunities.
For its role in creating, trapping, and studying atoms of antihydrogen, the ALPHA Canada team led by TRIUMF's Makoto Fujiwara has received the NSERC John C. Polanyi Prize.
TRIUMF graduate student Simon Viel is the recipient of one of the most prestigious fellowships in particle physics, the Chamberlain Fellowship at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.
As TRIUMF's cyclotron celebrates its 40th year in operation, we look back at the history of cyclotron development in Canada, beginning with McGill's 100 MeV synchrocyclotron.
